• Automation Is About Efficiency, Not Replacement AI isn't here to take jobs—it's here to make your people more efficient, freeing them up to focus on problem-solving and customer care.

• Speed to Lead = Speed to Cash Contacting a lead within 60 seconds can 4x your chances of booking. After five minutes, conversion drops sharply.

• Customer Experience Can Be Automated Without Losing the Human Touch Chad's "owner handshake" videos show how automation can scale personal connection and protect company culture.

• Recruiting Needs Automation Too Automated follow-ups with tech applicants increase engagement and keep the pipeline full, even when candidates respond after hours.

• AB Testing Is the Secret Weapon Tommy stressed that no automation is "set it and forget it." Constant testing and tweaking can double results.

• Don't Chase Every Shiny Tool Start small, focus on one business problem, and find the right partners to implement practical solutions.

• AI in Call Centers Is a Game-Changer At Peterman Brothers, 40% of calls are now handled by AI, freeing CSRs to focus on high-value conversations and boosting booking rates.
